Summary: MOST SATISFYING #4 IN THE SERIES!
Comment: But now I didn't say perfect!
Although we finally get to meet SIMON, he doesn't present the coldblooded fear that I would have expected.
As a love story for a 40 year old SPEAR operative who really is in need of a family the plot is great. To be haunted for two years by an illusion and not remember details, even though he was drunk at the time Burke Lonigan presents a strong character.
I couldn't figure out why he blocked his memory and was greatly surprised when I came upon the explaination. Loved this twist.
Callie, 25 at the time, giving into the liberal woman idea of the times, nevertheless took complete responsibility for her actions, not blaming Burke for getting her pregnant. Even she couldn't figure out why Burke couldn't remember her. Was he worthy of being a father to Seamus, a most lovable child.
The resolution of their blossoming love resulting from the encounter, about 2 years later makes for a great love story.
I was particularly intrigued with another SPEAR agent, Leland Perkins, wondering if he and Cassie's cousin, Enid would make a match of it. He could show up in B. Bartons' "Protector" series, couldn't he?
Highly Recommended for a story all by itself.
Ah well, now onto the 5th in the series, HERO AT LARGE by Robyn Amos with SPEAR agent Keshon Gray.

Summary: Highly recommended by WordWeaving.com
Comment: When his eyes focused on her, Callie Severin frozen, even when her instincts instructed her to run. Burke Lonigan's gaze held her hypnotized. Soon she found herself at his table, with the enduring questions asked if she'd like to be his friend, if only for the night. The night of searing passion and naked vulnerability resulted in a child she named Seamus, after Burke's father.
Callie had refused to go to Burke and tell him that he was a father. He'd been drunk that night, and hadn't even known her name. On the other hand, she was cold sober, and willing to take full responsibility for her actions. Yet she did apply for, and accept, the job as a personal assistant when the position came open, in order to learn more about the man who fathered her baby. Callie hoped the rumors that he was as illegal arms dealer were false. She was sadly mistaken. Or was she?
Through this masterful author's pen, an improbable story weaves its way into the reader's heart, becoming a plausible tale of romance and danger. All of the characters are vibrant, as even the child and cousin become interwoven into the tapestry of intrigue. Genre fiction at its best, HER SECRET WEAPON provides excellent escapist fiction for the romance lover. Highly recommended.

Summary: The night he cannot remember or forget
Comment: For Callie Severin, her job as an assistant for Burke Lonigan served two purposes. One is to provide for her child, the other is to become acquainted with her baby's father in order to determine whether is he is a decent man and therefore worthy of knowing he has fathered a child. Burke Lonigan is drawn to his assistant but remains haunted by the memory of an elusive woman he has shared one night with nearly two years ago. Right now, however, his priority is to deal with Simon by using the reputation he has cultivated as an arms dealer for his cover as a SPEAR Agent.
Beverly Barton continues the 'Year of Loving Dangerously' series from where it left off last month. Though this installment does not live up to its predecessors in terms of plot and characters, it has much to recommend it due to Barton's style, which is engaging and edgy when it comes to Burke and Callie's relationship. But this edgy quality falls short where the overarching plot involving Simon is concerned. As it is, the story is a well-written one, but because it does so little to integrate itself into the plot involving the traitor as the others did, it does not quite live up to the standards set by the preceding installments.
